Walker on Wealth with Barbara Walker Green guest Rich Gaines

Rich Gaines is a partner with Legacy Legal, Family Legacy Trainings, and co-founder of Crossroads Capital Management, leaders in living wealth and working with individuals and families who want to build their business and preserve and protect their family wealth for generations. After twenty five years of work as a tax and legacy planning attorney, Rich realized that people, when given the chance, like to express deeper emotions and desires about their individual and family purpose, vision, goals and legacy. Rich found that when people talk about their beliefs, their values, their intentions and the importance of what they do in life that they gain greater clarity about how to preserve and protect their business and family wealth today and for future generations. Through this process, Rich also found that by bringing families together as a team can make a major difference on the success of the plans that the parents or the family have put in place. From his second year in law school, Rich was passionate about using the tax law in a way that would benefit people in their lives today and into the future. Through his workshops, Rich brings a unique learning approach to legacy planning allowing people to experience and explore new opportunities and possibilities for themselves and their families. Over the years, Rich has published various articles on the Legacy Planning process. He has been a leader for the North San Diego County Bar Tax Section, served on boards of directors for various prominent charitable organizations, an educator at the University of Phoenix and a guest speaker throughout San Diego County.
